I suspect I'm the only one on this list who has heard him perform live 
(in Paris, 1960). I was aware of the 11-tracker Capitol LP at the time, 
but didn't have the audacity to ask him about it! As I remember, the 
band outnumbered the audience (I don't count the barflies).

I don't have too much of a problem with Hagood and Coleman. At least 
they didn't overstay their welcome.
